Trick questions, Jasdip! A hedgehog's heart rate is different at three different times -- "regular," while sleeping, and while in hibernation. Bears also have varying heart rates depending on whether they're hibernating or "up and about."

I believe there are over a dozen species of HH but none in North America. I agree with Lindsey...trick question.

Little buggers sure are cute though!

I saw this question while I was out and about today and it had given an answer. So I'm standing by my question! LOL

OK, then here are the answers, as I know them, but even these have ranges...

• Normal/awake heart rate: Anywhere between 200 and 280 bpm
• Heart rate when sleeping: 145-150
• Heart rate when hibernating: Between 2 and 20

180/190

depends how fast he's digging....lol

Well that was no fun at all. No use guessing now.

Lindsey....if you look the answers up...then "your out of the game". Guess first, then you can look it up. Can't post what you look up.

Maybe Lindsey knows hedge hogs as they are often sold as pets. I know the heart rate of a cat because I had to monitor one.

I don't often play the Daily Trivia because I got sick of being accused of cheating several years ago because I had "won" several times. I do not cheat. I happen to know a little bit about a lot of things, as do many people. When my brother converted from HIV+ to full-blown AIDS, he was hospitalized and his heart rate was 225 bpm for days. Last year I ended up in the ER and ended that day by getting a cardiac stent. Things related to hearts and heart rates are of interest to me (affect me) and, therefore, I did learn about them.

If you want to accuse someone of looking up the answers and then responding in the daily thread, you can look elsewhere.

And, while you're at it, Nicole, learn the difference between "your out of the game" and "you're out of the game."

Also, Nicole, I guess you're not aware that HUMANS have different heart rates at different times. A human's resting heart rate is much lower than their heart rate when exercising.

Therefore, it is not unusual for someone to know that an animal that HIBERNATES will have a much different heart rate when hibernating than when "up and about."

See, even you can learn something.

I just knew that you were going to attack Nicole regarding her grammar, Lindsey. Many of us feel that you (and others) feel the need to "win" this innocent and fun forum game, time and time again for years. We accept it and overlook it.

To attack Nicole for bringing it up is a very low blow. As a matter of fact, criticizing a person on a public forum for grammar or spelling is pretty low, period. It's beneath you.

Lindsey...really? I'm from Texas. I don't gotta learn nuthin! ha ha ha ha I'm college edgamacated...........done trying to impress people spoiling my fun.
